About this Blog...

I am a professional Independant Artist working in Mixed Media. (fused glass and metal) This will be the place where I post stories about my art, art shows and interesting people I have met through my travels. Since 1982, I have been self employed, working in wood, glass and blacksmithing. I now travel to juried art shows and sell my art.  It is an interesting way of life that is both fun and financially rewarding.
My wife Eva and I were married in Oct. 1983 and have 4 children. We homeschooled the kids and live north of Lake Charles, LA where my studio is located on 42 acres. No one ever comes by and says they were in the neighborhood!
My web site is www.frankthompson.com and I have my current art show schedule listed as well as photos of my work.
So stay tuned for the insiders look of the art world through my eyes. I'm sure you will find this blog both interesting and entertaining...so WELCOME!
